Yeah she is amazing. Shes got the stink, the look and the yield. Taste tests are going to be super fun. The next flood tray i run is going to be crazy once i load it with these girls. They are taking a long time to reveg. Nomal growth hasnt occurred yet. Ill snap a pic of all the young moms soon. Thanks for the compliments ga.

So i decided ill wait until 63 days to take them. Which is rapidly approaching. Smells are changing, as expected, the nose is becoming more fuely to lemon dependong on pheno. The one ss x b still has that skunk smell. The moms are re vegging well. Ill be transplating them from solo cups to 2 gal pots soon. Then they will explode and i can pheno hunt through the hydro examples. Super stoked. Karma OG is coming soon as well. Cant wait to run them. Elite genetics on deck!

Had to pull

Had to pull

Well we are 9 weeks in and i really have been cramped on space. I pulled the 9 phenos although a few of them could have used another week or two.
Well start with the 4 star bud sis x biker plants.

I wish i had more space/time to let these ripen. They all have strong terp profiles. Im sure they are far along enough for me to detect which ones ill be keeping. A few of them i already know don't make the cut. I initially wanted to keep one elite pheno of each, however, ill need to do a hydro test for at least 4 of these it seems. Next update will be dried photos with 9 smoke reports. Most of them seem like great OG representation. Lemon to fuel smells from pretty much all of them. My hands reek of OG. :tiphat:

Well, i dont grow in soil other than to do test runs like this. Anything i would do in hydro would blow these results out of the water and everything would have been riper. With that said, i think differences in some phenos are very dramatic. The starbud sister plants univerally made heavier tighter buds that ripened faster. Theyre all on the skunkier fuel side if things. The sour power were on the lemony side of things and had smaller buds. I think all of the starbud sis phenos have the potential to yield very very well. As for the sour power phenos id say that #4 and #5 could yield very well, the others are medium yielders. If yield is your main goal, go with the starbud sis x biker.

I think a gram per watt is achivable with the starbud sis phenos and more like 1.25-1.75 #s per light of the sour power.

I had a lot of fun with these so far thanks GA. One of them has a tangerine smell. Cant wait to see them in hydro. Now if only these moms could resume veg growth so i can take some cuts!!
